In this episode of Becoming A Powerhouse Brand, I’m joined by returning guest Sherisse Bisram for a deeply powerful and expansive conversation on what it really means to grow a business, find your path and speak your truth as a woman.

Sherisse is a feminine embodiment mentor, global speaker and transformational leader whose work goes beyond mindset and into true soul-level identity and expression.

We explore the journey of moving from survival-led success into something more aligned, more truthful and more powerful - and why this inner work is essential, not just for us, but for the next generation of women.

We talk about the patterns and beliefs many women carry through life, how they shape the way we show up, and why healing and embodiment are key to breaking those cycles.

This conversation is a reminder that your power isn’t something you need to create, it’s something you return to.

If you’re on a journey of self-discovery, healing and stepping into your truth, this episode will land deeply.

If you’re ready to shift your identity, elevate your standards and become more visible in your business, this episode will show you where to start.

In todays episode, I’m sharing a simple but powerful reminder - you always get to choose you.

Even when life feels heavy.
Even when things aren’t going to plan.
Even when you’re in the thick of it.

We can’t always control what happens around us, but we can choose how we respond, how we move forward and how we take care of ourselves in the process.

In this episode, I talk about the importance of taking ownership of your next move, giving yourself permission to pause, and recognising that even small choices (like taking five minutes for yourself) can shift everything.

Because when you’re in the trenches, the only way is through… but how you move through it is always within your control.

This is your reminder that you are not stuck. You are not powerless. You always have a choice.

In this episode of Becoming A Powerhouse Brand with me, Jacquie Lawes, I’m joined by Denise Balyoz for a deeply powerful and grounding conversation on what it really means to create authentic, aligned success from the inside out.

This episode is for the woman who is already successful… but knows something about how she is holding that success no longer feels sustainable.

Denise works at the intersection of the nervous system, leadership and relationships, supporting high-achieving entrepreneurs, leaders and parents to move beyond pressure, overwhelm and internal strain, and into a way of living and leading that feels clear, steady and deeply aligned.

We explore how success is no longer limited by strategy, but by the capacity of the person holding it, and why so many high performers find themselves carrying invisible pressure that impacts their decisions, relationships and overall wellbeing.

This conversation brings everything back to the body, the nervous system and your relationship with yourself, and how, when those shift, everything else begins to change naturally.


If you’ve been feeling the weight of success or sensing that something needs to change beneath the surface, this episode will meet you there.

In todays 'Ask Jacquie' question, Rebecca (a personal stylist) wants to know if you really need a website for your business.

There are so many people who will tell you that you don't need one and honestly? They're right! But I would also challenge this with telling you that by not having one, you are missing out on a huge opportunity to boost your visibility, impact AND income.

In this episode of Becoming A Powerhouse Brand, I’m sharing something a little more real and behind-the-scenes.

Over the Easter holidays, I noticed myself slipping out of the habits and routines that usually support me. Not looking after myself in the way I normally would, prioritising everything else over me… and feeling the impact of that not just personally, but in my business too.

Because here’s the truth:

Your external reality will always reflect your internal world.

When your energy is off, when you’re disconnected from yourself, when you’re not prioritising your wellbeing, it shows up everywhere.

In this episode, I talk about the importance of coming back to yourself, why the inner work is the foundation for everything you’re building, and how small shifts in how you treat yourself can create powerful changes in your results.

This is your reminder that you don’t need more strategy, you need to support the version of you who’s creating it all.
